Bob Bradley: "The Egyptian player is a talented one unlike the American"

Credit Bob Bradley for telling the truth. The man who led the United States to the top of a group containing mighty England and to a shock 2-0 victory in the Confederations Cup that ended Spain's incredible 35-match unbeaten run will coach the mighty Pharoahs of Egypt, the team that has won the last three African Nations Cups.

Egypt, alas, did not qualify for next year's event, and Bradley has been hired to lead the Pharoahs to the World Cup for the first time since 1990. He's also got a shot to get back to the Confederations Cup in Brazil in 2013 since the African Nations Cup that year will determine Africa's representative.

Judging by Bradley's words, he is relishing the chance to coach a more talented team. He told CNN Arabic that "The Egyptian player is a talented one unlike the American who depends mainly on his fitness."

Bradley is 100 percent right. The problem with the American soccer player is a lack of talent. Credit Bradley for telling it like it is, even though the truth hurts.
